semisweeti watched FNL! \o/ god, tim riggins.
TIMMY. god, tim fucking riggins. he IS lost, and he's always been lost, and he's always so lonely. in theory, the idea of riggs getting religion should mortify me (because that's how i roll), but i really liked how they played it. it makes sense to me - ever since the pilot, ever since he lost his old life with jason as his QB best friend, he's been so alone. so he latches on to lyla. to tyra again. to jackie. he tries church, he hops in the car to ride to mexico with jason. it's all the same thing. tim looking for meaning, looking for some kind of connection. i thought he played it beautifully, and i do wonder if the church storyline is done for him or not. it's too bad lyla flipped out like that, because i really do think he was sincere. oh, and does anyone know what song was playing when he was on his way to church?
*ahem* ok, moving on.
i cannot fucking stand julie. up until this ep, i thought she was obnoxious, but i understood it, but this week, nope. done. i never had the love for her like everyone else does, so. yeah. shut the fuck up, julie. i'm glad tami bitchslapped her stupid ass.
landry and tyra. just...♥ i'm glad things didn't go to the horrible awkward woeful place with them. i'm nervous as hell for what's to come, but i loved them in this ep.
COACH TAYLOR NEEDS TO COME BACK RIGHT NOW! i have no idea what buddy's planning and i'm sure there's a hot mess ahead, but dillon without eric taylor is just awful. buddy's speech about eric's family missing him and needing him made me tear up a little and i don't even know why.
nice to see more of smash, finally. i don't think he was that bad, personally. i mean, he's SMASH. that's how he is. i think he just seems worse because everything else is so sucky.
and here's a wildly unpopular opinion: i like carlotta, and i think she and matt have good chemistry. the shoulder massage thing wasn't subtle, but i thought it worked. have matt and julie had sex, btw?
i adore jason street. and i hate the new coach whose name i can never remember.
non-spoilery and adorable taylor kitsch segment from e!:
oh, and fyi: don't go see we own the night. hot mess. great acting (especially joaquin phoenix, mark wahlberg was actually kind of bland tbh), but the plot was blah and implausible for so many reasons. for example, what the fuck kind of "professional" shoots an unarmed, non-moving target in the face from three feet away and doesn't kill them? an assassin sent by the russian mob cannot kill a man at point-blank range? wtf? and it veered into serious melodrama and was too long and just...yeah. do not want!
i had a dream last night about taking a trip to some bookstore to buy the last harry potter book, which wasn't deathly hallows but apparently some book that came after. albus dumbledore and the naked wizard limbo, maybe, idk.

Date: 2007-10-20 07:11 pm (UTC)Landry and Tyra are so beautifully acted and written this season. I loved her ignoring him, but watching him at school. Then realizing just how great he is because of his dad's comments. Then that kiss. Eeep. It's killing me to know that the proverbial shit is going to have to hit the fan for them soon. *sigh*
Incidentally, I'm listening to Butch Walker right now - and it's one of those comment interests we've never discussed. Any chance you were a fan of Southgang back in the day? (What can I say - I was a hair metal fan in junior high!)
I need a FNL icon. Pronto.
